Because we want to apply the restriction of what USB pendrives can be
mounted to all the users of the system, including root. So we need to
perform this in kernel space, otherwise any other userspace solutions
can be manipulated by root.

I guess that it's a little difficult to understand all the deteails
without a whole image of the context, but I can't provide more details
since my NDA doesn't allow me :(

Anyway, if we doesn't consider such aspects, how could I obtain the
udev device name associated to a given usb_device structure.
